Historical Context
Historical Context
“Harem” pattern / Orientalism – From the late 19th century onward, Western makers drew heavily on Ottoman and Islamic design. “Harem” became a marketing name for patterns using Moorish arches, lattices and arabesques. This bowl continues that tradition, echoing Victorian & Edwardian “Turkish” and “Arabesque” wares but in a clean, modern colour.
The © symbol and branding, together with the satin presentation box, point to a late 20th–early 21st century decorative glass line, probably produced for the gift and department‑store market.
